Post the Song Stuck in Your Head

what no i was asking you what is your game as in why would you take it away after putting it there. there are a million 80s songs how could i possibly guess?

that isn't seriously the name of a song?

I didn't take it away...it just didn't show up. It was there in the preview thingy and then must have got sucked down a big hole. ( I reckon cris has got this thing wired up to reject anything that he finds distasteful)

lol i dunno even when i try to quote it its just nto there. ususally when things dont show up they are still in teh code somehow this is strange

my favourite Disney movie by miles and miles

HOLY SHIT I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THAT SONG YESTERDAY.

someone mentioned to me that it was 8 years since Stuart Adamson took his life and this song has been churning around in my head.

is this thing playing silly beggars again?

ah well, if we can't have the music we can have the words

Chance.

All the rain came down on a cold new town
As he carried you away
From your father's hand that always seemed like a fist
Reaching out to make you pay
He came like a hero from the factory floor
With the sun and moon as gifts
But the only son you ever saw
Where the two he left you with
Oh lord where did the feeling go
Oh lord I never felt so low
Now the skirts hang so heavy around your head
That you never knew you were young
Because you played chance with a lifetime's romance
And the price was far too long
Oh lord where did the feeling go
Oh lord I never felt so low

the very lovely Andy Yorke and friends

Being down in Manchester, as I was the other week, always makes certain music come into my mind and Joy Division are usually pretty dominant. I don't have any of their stuff on my computer so I was digging around on youtube and found this amazing version of Love Will tear Us Apart. I was always aware of the lyric but it seems even more powerful here where I'm not distracted by the urge to dance.

man that version really is beautiful. such a lovely song.

kill me

from my favourite U2 album

That last one lead me to this - probably my favourite U2 song if not my favourite song ever - despite all the flag-waving and politics of the video I think it's basically a love song and for that I adore it.

I basically have it all learned on guitar but I haven't played it properly b/c my guitar I was learning it on is too small and my acoustic guitar needs new strings :S

^ loved this song when it first came out and then as time went on it became a 'meh, Oasis' kind of thing. Now, 15? years later, ....I love it again. Great song.

Thanks to jayney for reminding me of this
